Re: Unresolved Plot Point Collection Thread II

Was there, originally, a specific reason to wonder and what was the doubt about, exactly?

Someone posted on this forum, saying that he believed Start of Darkness was real, but his friend was arguing that the whole book was merely "what Redcloak claims happened."

Rich responded that everything we saw in Start of Darkness actually happened and none of it was filtered through Redcloak...except the crayon section, which totally was filtered through Redcloak.

"The really unforgivable acts are committed by calm men in beautiful green silk rooms, who deal death wholesale, by the shipload, without lust, or anger, or desire, or any redeeming emotion to excuse them but cold fear of some pretended future. But the crimes they hope to prevent in the future are imaginary. The ones they commit in the present--they are real." --Aral Vorkosigan
